I've been waiting on my copy of "Tattooing As You Like It", for about a week. That picture just made the wait so much harder!

@Paul H dad was a badass

Ha, ha... you'd have thought so given in the early sixties tattoos still had plenty of social stigma attached to them, but he was/is a solicitor, I guess you can't judge a book and all that, always been a solid dude though.

Abees & Slayer, glad the pix were of interest, Cheers.

Dad just got more bad , thats the shit I love about tattooing , the contradictions , like the cut-off points of a Japanese bodysuit , its this surprise factor that will keep the beautiful rebel aspect despite how many crappy stars and T.V. shows get churned out .
